The ‘America’s Next Top Model’ star has known Heidi for many years and he tells HollywoodLife.com why he thinks Heidi and Seal are over for good!

Heidi Klum looked absolutely stunning when she stepped out at the amFAR gala on Feb. 8 for her first red carpet appearance since her split from Seal. Although she was still wearing her wedding ring, HollywoodLife.com has the inside scoop on the status of their relationship from her good friend Jay Manuel.

“I do believe in their statement that they put out that they really love each other,” Jay told us at Fashion Week’s Diet Pepsi Style Studio on Feb. 9. “And that it was amicable. But I think you know things happen and it’s just difficult.”

But does Jay think there’s any chance the couple who were married for six years, would ever decide to work things out?

“In knowing Heidi I would tell you that this would have been the last resort,” Jay says. “She would have done anything to secure that relationship, she is a very genuine person. I would think if you’re going public with something like that and you’re in the public eye, it’s probably the final straw.”

Heidi was still sporting her ring at the amFAR gala but Jay says we shouldn’t read too much into it.

“It’s just interesting,” he says. “When you see just a band people go ‘oh it’s a wedding band’ when it’s probably just another ring, It’s crazy, people read into little details.”
